Hi everyone! As it’s Friday, here’s another update on all things Laughing Jackal.
First up, Vibes has begun to do the rounds on the various gaming websites, with some excellent reviews. pspminis.com gave us a very respectable 8.5, while pushsquare.com also gave us 3-out-of-four squares. Elsewhere the mighty Eurogamer were similarly impressed and awarded Vibes 8/10. Thanks to everyone at the sites above for taking the time to look at the game, and for all your positive feedback. We’re still being approached by lots of other sites, so more news on those ratings as they come in!
On the subject of Vibes, some players were experiencing issues with the game last week that have now been fixed. We are now in the process of getting the game back through SCEA and SCEE’s QA submission queue, which should hopefully be sorted by this time next week/early the week after. Once that’s done people will be able to re-download the game free of charge! Thanks again for your patience on this if you’ve experienced these issues. :-)
What else is happening? Well, Ace Armstrong vs. the Alien Scumbags is continuing apace and we’re finalising the various enemy waves in the missions using a natty editor we hope to take forward into other shooters or other scrolling games - I’d personally like to do something along the lines of Contra, but we’ll see. I have a feeling we’ll be going a little more ‘old skool’ for our next Mini! ;-)
Ace should be ready to take on the Alien Scumbags around August this year. More concrete news on a launch window as and when we get it.
See below for some new Ace Armstrong related imagery while you wait for the release:

Ace blasts off!
That’s all for now. See you again next week!
